Chapter 124: The Fight Against the Shadows
"Don't let go of every corner, I will never allow anyone to be kicked out of the presidential palace!"
This roar was made by the commander-in-chief of the Northern Fortress Army, Major General Olivia. She was wearing a dark blue military uniform of the Northern Army, and her pure white cloak spread out wantonly with the general holding the command room. Their attack was smooth, and it didn't take long for them to storm this easily defended fortress.
With the beginning of the offensive, the Northern Army gradually liberated itself from the siege and began to clear the enemy layer by layer in the Grand Presidential Palace. Gunshots and shouts rang out from time to time in the huge presidential palace, and at the head of the line was the commando team led by Olivia.
"Report!" Just as they were about to storm the president's boardroom, the scouts trotted all the way to Olivia. I saw him snap his feet together and say loudly, "The presidential conference room is empty, but we found a tunnel that leads underground!" ”
Tunnel?
Could it be that the group of officials and men who never dared to go to the battlefield escaped from the tunnels? As soon as this thought came to Olivia's mind, it was immediately dispelled without hesitation.
"Even if we chase the new country to the east, we will not stop!" Olivia nodded to the soldiers behind her and Brother Edward, and once again rushed to the entrance to the underground tunnel.
As soon as they reached the entrance of the underground tunnel, they could feel a dark wind blowing in their faces. Olivia tightened the cloak she put on her and strode out without hesitation. The Edward brothers glanced at each other at this time, nodded in unison, and followed behind Olivia.
As soon as you enter the underground tunnels, you will be greeted by darkness.
"Tactical lights!"
Olivia shouted without looking back.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! ”
Dozens of tactical flashlights were turned on in an instant, and more than a dozen pillars of light illuminated the entire underground tunnel in an instant. I saw that the soldiers who were following Olivia held a tactical flashlight in their left hand and placed it horizontally on their chests, and their right hand, which was holding a pistol and ready to pull the trigger, rested on their left wrist. This allows the Soldier to attack at any time, and the beam of light emitted from the flashlight in his left hand can also help the Soldier aim. It can be said that just by evaluating the combat quality, these soldiers who have fought in the northern fortress for many years are undoubtedly the best in the army of this country.
It's just that this battle has gone beyond the realm of humanity. So the ending was decided the moment they turned on the flashlight.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
The shadows that had been illuminated by the flashlight instantly began to wriggle, like a poisonous snake that had suddenly awakened from hibernation. I saw these poisonous snakes suddenly roll their long poisonous tongues and lick them on the soldiers' faces with a whoosh.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”
Dozens of bright red blood flowers instantly bloomed in this small tunnel. The flashlight that had been held in their hands also fell to the ground with the death of their master.
"It's a shadow!"
The Edward brothers, who followed behind, clearly saw the source of the attack. The serpent-like attacks spread out of the shadows illuminated by these flashlights.
"Turn off the flashlight!"
As soon as she heard the inference of the Edward brothers behind her, Olivia said without hesitation. However, although her order was given without thinking, before the soldiers could react, the skulls had been pierced by a poisonous snake born from the illuminated shadows illuminated by the flashlight.
One after another, bloody heads fell to the ground, blood trickling out of the wounds, mixed with shadows and light everywhere, making the tunnel look even more eerie.
"There's no way!" Olivia rolled on the spot and picked up the pistol from the ground, and with a flick of her slender fingers, she smashed a flashlight with a snap. "Smash all light sources!"
Olivia shouted loudly at her soldiers, but before she could hear the sound of gunfire like popping beans, the screams of the soldiers began to be heard from all directions.
"What a sharp commander......"
Mocking voices converged on Edward and his party from all directions as the screams of the soldiers screamed. They involuntarily looked in the direction of the sound, but their eyes widened in unison. Not for anything else, just because it was a child who appeared in front of them at this moment.
The fight drove the women away, not to mention the children. No matter what kind of soldier you are, you can't do it against a child who is not as tall as his chest! Not to mention that they all knew this little kid, his name was Selim. Bradley.
"It's the son of the great president!" Baccaña, who was as burly as a giant bear, cried out in surprise, "Why are you here! ”
"Me?"
Look at this soldier with a steel prosthetic leg in his right hand. Selim looked down at his toes, looking like a child who had done something wrong. Just as everyone wanted to come over to comfort the child, he suddenly raised his head and smiled.
"Be careful!"
Edward shouted hurriedly. But his reminder was too late.
I saw that the burly Baccaña, who was like a giant bear, shook twice in the eyes of everyone, and fell to the ground with a thud, raising a puff of smoke and dust.
It wasn't until Bakania's body was torn to shreds by shadows that gathered from all directions that Selim's voice belatedly reached everyone's ears.
"Of course I'm here to kill you!"
For a moment, the tunnel was filled with a suffocating and terrifying atmosphere.
Boom!
"Huh?"
Selim, who was contentedly admiring everyone's expressions, suddenly raised his hand and subconsciously touched his forehead. He put his right hand in front of him. I saw that my little hands had been stained with red blood.
Got shot yourself?
Selim looked with interest at the attacker, and saw Olivia half-kneeling on the ground, the muzzle of the pistol in both hands facing his forehead. Her pure white cloak was stained with gray dust. Even a few places were soaked in blood. It's just that this qiē didn't stop the female general. Her hand was still steady, and the bullet from the muzzle of the gun pierced Selim's skull without missing a beat.
"Oh, I was shot." Selim sneered, but the muscles on his forehead began to squirm. I saw that the huge wound healed little by little, and finally spit out the yellow bullet as if it were spitting out a bone.
When!
The bullets that fell to the ground were stomped into the dirt by Selim.
"I forgot to mention that my real name is Pride. It's called Cyborg Pryde! ”
Android?! Immortal!?
Pride spoke. The Edward brothers reacted instantly, only to see the two brothers put their hands on the ground without hesitation, because they had seen the door of truth, these two brothers did not need to draw a special alchemy formation to use alchemy.
Bang!
The ground slammed, and a fist like a hill instantly drilled out of the ground and smashed directly towards Pride.
"It's too weak."
That's Pride's assessment. He didn't even move, he just stood still. The shadows that lingered around his body rose instantly, and with a few swishing sounds, the rushing giant fist was slashed into three parts, and finally all the shadows came together and cracked, and the stone fist was smashed into powder and dissipated into the tunnel.
In the scattered stone chips, Pride sneered at the corners of his mouth as he looked at the people who couldn't do anything about him.
"It's done!"
At this time. Spring. Decas's voice pierced through the curtain of stone chips and burst in front of Pride in an instant. Before Pride could react, the ground beneath him began to tumble violently like boiling water, and four stone walls slammed up from around Pryde's body and finally closed on top of Pryde's head.
"I can see you can use the shadows to move and attack, but if it's dark and there is no light, there's nothing you can do, right?" Edward's master, Quancadiz, heard from the stone walls, "Stay with me in this dark cage now until we break all the light sources and come out!" Android! ”
Olivia's heart instantly cleared. The stone fist that the Edward brothers had just made was just for their master, Izumi. Cadiz offers an opportunity to create a zào out of captivity for Pryde. And now is the time to smash all the light sources.
"Speed up!"
Olivia shouted orders to his soldiers, and began shooting at every light source that was still on.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bullets burst through the chamber and swooped for flashlights, but suddenly a suffocating sound sounded in the air.
Crash!
Crash!
One by one, their eyes opened in the little tunnel. He appeared in every inch of the shadows, some larger than a man. Some are the size of a finger. But both big and small eyes make the same movement in an instant.
It's the hand!
The hands that are rooted in the whites of each eyeball grow like weeds swaying in the wind. They looked so weak, but as soon as the bullet passed through the small, black palms, it vanished without a trace.
"It's true that I can only move where there is light and shadow. But ......"
Crash!
A pair of hands as thick as stone pillars slammed the shadow apart from the middle. A huge friendless eye was revealed.
"This is who I am! I'm the first cyborg Pride! ”
Eyes can speak, which is an extremely scary thing. But now there was no one to gasp in horror. The elite that Olivia had brought to the underground tunnels had been wiped out in an instant by the wave of weed-like black tentacles.
And now, the tentacles squirmed again. Like a tidal wave, Edward's master springs. The prison of Cadiz Zào was infiltrated, and little by little it corroded the small defense.
"Put yourself to death, it's really a stupid and lowly human being!"
The huge friendless eyes said with a sneer.
The Edward brothers didn't have time to lend a helping hand to their masters, they were being attacked by eyes and tentacles that were converging from all directions, and it seemed that death was only a matter of an eye.
In the midst of this desperate battlefield, a completely incongruous footsteps rang out. It was a figure in a brown waistcoat and a gentleman's top hat, and I saw him slowly walk in front of Brother Edward, and before he could raise his hand, those black tentacles and eyes retreated like a tide.
"Before you beat my son, at least ask me about my father......", the man took off the coffee-colored gentleman's top hat on his head, and crumpled the hat into a ball with his right hand, "Cyborg Pryde!" ”
Wow!
With the man's loud shout, the shadows that had been everywhere immediately dissipated and left like a tide. In an instant, only one voice echoed through the entire tunnel.
"Father has been waiting for you for a long time, Hoffenheim. Eric! (To be continued......)
